It's different when you live in the city. For example, I've never climbed up the CN tower or been to the BATA shoe museum. I have a feeling Emcee and Fantab are going to be laughing at all my tourist pictures of random trees and buildings that they see every day.
I know what you mean. I've never been to the Statue of Liberty. I also live forty minutes outside Manhattan in dull suburbia, and tend to get ensconced here.
CS, when, exactly, are you coming? I think I'm going to miss you by just a few days!
Well, I'll pose WITH the tree. THEN it'll be special!
Excellent. Em, be prepared for many pictures. And some slight fangirlling at the train station.
Elphie - August 5 - 13
I'm so excited! I love playing tour guide
I just know I'm going to end up on the "things tourists say" thread.
You can fangirl, but I don't sign autographs.
Just as long as you show up at the stagedoor
Oooh! I leave August 5; maybe we can meet!
And make sure you don't touch Em. You can take pics *of* her, but not *with* her, of course.
*sigh*
That Em, she's such a diva!
I took a picture with someone at the Kennedy Center with the monuments (Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln) in the background yesterday and it was the first time I've ever been in a picture with those buildings. It felt so odd. Then we had to put out a fire, so I forgot about it.

*puts star stickers around box*
I won't get in until close to 10 pm, if you're still around we'll definitely meet up.
I'm going to bring a utensil and ask Em to pose with it. I also have to see a real spork, we don't have them here that I've seen.
Maybe she'll put a frog on her head too. The sandwiches are already made.

You had to put out a fire? Talk about a throwaway line...
Em has the largest spork I've ever seen, you'll have trouble topping that.
Isn't it, like, a salad spork...thing?
hehe! I love that spork. I have, however, discovered by overall love for kitchen utensils, which my family thinks is very strange.
I eagerly await my Weirdo Sandwiches.
I'm making the finishing touches of your head on popsickle sticks right now.
Don't forget the signs with random quotes from her posts!
Yes, I've got all the ones that make no sense out of context and have no real meaning.
You girls are so thoughtful.
*buys a container*
I got invited to go with all of my cousins to NYC in August and now my mom's decided that she wants to invite herself along and acts mortally wounded when I even hint that I don't want her coming. Aaargh!
I think we've found another touristy thing I want to visit. The Container Store.
I'm sorry Atrias, I hate it when people invite themselves to things you'd rather do alone, and then make you feel bad for not wanting them there.
Mothers are generally bad at taking hints.
